Devil in a Blue Dress

You've heard from Dax? Yeah, last night She's still in town? She was last night And, what did she say? What was she wearin'? Blue dress, high heels (mm, that's her) Uh, soon as the plane touched down, it was on She made the calls and the calls came around About the crowd and they gone and hit the freeway Weavin' through the lanes like hands ready She had a diagram tryna to get the plan ready (just like that) The hand steady, she connected the dots And marked the threats that potentially affected the plot She got dropped right next to the spot and started casin' it While acin' the hole, I made sure the exit was blocked She had it locked, not new to the game She pulled out a black book full of names of a crew to obtain You know the task force? Shorty had an undisclosed cash source If you tryna to blow a fast one, this is a crash course (right) More or less, she had it under control Even paid the cops off that were on the patrol (whoa) The whole scenario was set, chess pieces in place That's when I received a call I couldn't trace, damn (yo, who-up?) I made a deal with the devil in a blue dress (blue dress) oh I'm in trouble, I don't know what I'ma do next (do next) oh I made a deal with the devil in a blue dress (blue dress) oh I'm in trouble, I don't know what I'ma do next (do next) oh After starin' at the screen for what seemed to be an eternity (c'mon) I took the call but it didn't even occur to me that it could be her (how?) She keeps me hanging on a string (on a string) And when she sends an SOS, it isn't for a fling, it's for a felony (for real) I listen close to what she's tellin' me I knew that she was talkin' but it wasn't for my salary I got a particular set of skills, like Liam Neeson If she were to make a proposal to me, it'd be indecent She told me that she had a job only I could handle (me) But if I made it out alive would I survive the scandal? I weighed my options but obviously I acquiesce She arranged my travel on the spot and told me pack a vest (yes) I underestimated all of the risks And immediately, I wished it was a call that I missed 'Cause I was fallin' in deep, now I'm over my head I pour a drink and keep sinkin', I'll be sober when I'm dead (dead, dead, dead) I made a deal with the devil in a blue dress (blue dress) oh I'm in trouble, I don't know what I'ma do next (do next) oh I made a deal with the devil in a blue dress (blue dress) oh I'm in trouble, I don't know what I'ma do next (do next) oh When I arrived at the scene I expected to see a team assembled Not the hollow bone stick-figured and she resembled Catch I could tell that she was out of her league (uh-huh) That's when I sparked a hell to battle my chronic fatigue I need a way out As she's staring at me with a grin And says I'm glad you finally made it Now we're about to begin Inside this compound is a boss and his conglomerate I'll rig the bomb and you'll be the one that's armin' it (nah) Then hold 'em off at the front, I've got the exit Then you'll be paid and on your way off to your next hit (what?) I knew that somethin' was awry and I smelled a trap I could see the fear in her eye but she held it back (mm) Before I had the chance to act, I heard shots fired (oh) Then she hopped in a getaway car that she hot-wired (what?) And said I'm sorry that you chose to get involved I was tryna to frame my ex but now you gotta take the fall (what?) You think you can find her again? It's important, for her sake I'm willing to pay you Why'd she leave in the first place? It's really none of your concern But I am willing to pay you to find her Okay
